Only by truly standing in front of the World Tree would one be able to feel its terrifying might. Even after endless years of death, it was still not something that humans could profane.

Looking at this huge tree trunk, Li Qing felt that it was not just a tree, it was more like a world! It possessed power comparable to the world!

“If Daoist Patriarch Wuji is still alive, I wonder if he can shake the trunk of the World Tree?” Li Qing couldn’t help but think in his heart. Daoist Patriarch Wuji had always represented the myth of invincibility, and there was nothing he could not do. If there was anyone who could shake the World Tree from ancient to modern times, then it was none other than him.

“What am I thinking so much about?” Li Qing shook his head and laughed. “The Invincible World Tree is different from the Invincible World Tree in Daoist Patriarch Wuji. This comparison is meaningless.”

At this moment, he felt the heart of the Demon Ancestor Tree in his hand tremble violently.

“Yes, the Demon Ancestor Tree is the descendant of the World Tree. No wonder I’m so excited. I can only come here by relying on the Demon Ancestor Tree’s heartforce.” Li Qing quickly understood.

The seven layers of green light barrier he encountered along the way was the power of the World Tree, protecting the Tong Tian Mountain. The Demon Ancestor Tree was a descendant of the World Tree. The two of them were extremely closely connected, allowing them to pass through those light shields.

The heart of the Demon Ancestor Tree trembled violently. At this moment, an extremely terrifying power erupted, pulling Li Qing involuntarily towards the World Tree.

Although Li Qing was shocked in his heart, he did not resist. In any case, he was also going there. He let nature take its course and was pulled towards the World Tree’s trunk by the Demon Ancestor Tree’s heart.

The closer he got, the more he could feel the grand aura of the World Tree, almost comparable to the sun and moon. It was the backbone of heaven and earth.

Under this terrifying aura, most people would not be able to stand firm. Only Li Qing was able to cancel out this aura by holding onto the Demon Ancestor Tree Heart.

The so-called Mountain Watching Dead Horse looked very close, but the actual distance was not short. Li Qing walked for an entire hour before arriving at the foot of the World Tree trunk.

From such a close distance, he could no longer see the complete appearance of the tree trunk of the world. He could only see a wooden wall stretching out in front of him, endless and infinite.

As he neared the World Tree, bathed in its brilliance, the Demon Ancestor Tree’s heart seemed to be in his mother’s embrace, and it quickly quieted down.

“Eh, why are there so many array patterns on this tree trunk? Is this inscribed by someone?” Li Qing asked in surprise. From such a close distance, one could clearly see that the formation patterns on it were clearly the products of human civilization!

Who was it that could carve array patterns on the tree trunk of the world?

“It’s not just array runes, there are also countless weapons refining runes! Someone wants to refine the trunk of this World Tree into a weapon!” Seeing this scene, Li Qing felt his scalp go numb. Who was so arrogant as to want to do such a shocking thing?

Someone actually wanted to refine the World Tree into a weapon! Thinking about it, he was shocked.

If he could really refine this tree trunk into a weapon, then its power was simply unimaginable. It definitely surpassed any weapon from ancient times to modern times. Perhaps it was even more powerful than the Primordial Limitless Diagram!

“Could it be the Heaven Splitting Demon Emperor?” Li Qing thought to himself.

Perhaps only the Heaven Splitting Demon Emperor had the courage and strength to do such a shocking thing.

If an ordinary Dao Realm expert came, they wouldn’t even be able to break through the World Tree’s defenses, let alone refine this tree trunk into a weapon. Therefore, it was impossible for him to do this without the support of his powerful strength.

Not only did the Heaven Splitting Demon Emperor possess tyrannical strength, he had also created the Demon Clan’s Ancestral Court in the Heavenspan Mountain. This was its territory and had occupied it for a long time. The only person in the world who had the most chance to do this was the Heaven Splitting Demon Emperor.

Ordinary demonic beasts simply did not understand human formations and artifact forging techniques, so it was very difficult to associate this matter with demonic beasts’ heads. The Heaven Splitting Demon Emperor, on the other hand, was a different type, possessing extremely high perception. He was different from other demonic beasts in that he was so stupid. Since childhood, he had been listening to the Dao in the Subhuti Academy, learning about human formations and artifact forging techniques.

Not only did the Heaven Splitting Demon Emperor learn human formations and artifact forging techniques, he even brought forth new ideas and created artifact forging techniques that were more suitable for demonic beasts. It could be said that he had reached the level of a grandmaster.

All of this indicated that the Heaven Splitting Demon Emperor was the existence most likely to do this.

This World Tree Trunk was obviously only a semi-finished product, and it had not yet been successfully refined. Li Qing could deduce from the runes on it that the Heaven Splitting Demon Emperor had only set up a peerless grand formation in the beginning, connecting this tree trunk with the entire Heavenspan Mountain and using the power of the World Tree to protect the Heavenspan Mountain.

The Heaven Splitting Demon Emperor’s original intention should be to establish the Heavenspan Mountain as an immortal inheritance that could be passed down from generation to generation to contend against humans.

Afterwards, he had other thoughts and began to refine the World Tree, wanting to refine it into a weapon.

However, the difficulty of refining the World Tree into a weapon was simply too great. Even with the Heaven Splitting Demon Emperor’s strength, he had only managed to succeed by half over the years.

Originally, with the Heaven Splitting Demon Emperor’s long lifespan, it might really be able to accomplish this feat in its lifetime. However, it was a pity that the Heaven Splitting Demon Emperor died in the Mysterious Heaven Mountain and died halfway, leaving only this semi-finished product in front of him.

Li Qing couldn’t help but sigh. If the World Tree was really refined into a weapon by the Heaven Splitting Demon Emperor, sweeping across the Eight Desolates and Six Harmonies, and becoming the supreme being of the world, then there was indeed hope that it would be able to compete with Daoist Patriarch Wuji and become the supreme expert of the Eternal Ancient Era.

It was a pity that he had died before his ambition was rewarded. He didn’t know whether he should be rejoicing or lamenting. This was the misfortune of the demon race, but it was also the blessing of humanity.

“If I become stronger in the future, can I continue to refine this World Tree into a weapon?” Li Qing was slightly moved. If he could refine it into a weapon and complete the unfinished business of the Heaven Splitting Demon Emperor, wouldn’t he have a chance to compete with Daoist Patriarch Wuji?

Surpassing Daoist Patriarch Wuji was the dream of everyone in the world. Li Qing was also not exempt from the customs.

“Too much thought!” Li Qing couldn’t help but smile bitterly. If he wanted to refine this World Tree, he had to at least become a Dao Realm expert. Otherwise, he wouldn’t even be able to break through the defense of the World Tree.

This gap was simply too great! It was better not to think about such a distant matter. Even if he was lucky enough to reach the Void Realm in his lifetime, that would already be an amazing thing.

“Forget it, even if this World Tree can really be refined, it will definitely be refined into a stick-type weapon. I use a saber, but it’s useless if I want to come.” Li Qing comforted himself in his heart.

Seeing this world tree trunk standing in front of them, such an earth-shattering treasure was unable to be taken away because of his own strength. No one could help but feel depressed in their hearts.

He found it hard to let go of the fact that he had entered the treasure mountain and returned empty-handed.

He was a little unwilling to accept it. He didn’t believe that there were no other treasures here. Anyway, there was plenty of time, so it was better to search for some more time. Perhaps there would be some unexpected harvest.

Li Qing immediately moved around the World Tree and released his divine sense. He began to search the surroundings to see if there were any treasures.

Divine sense was convenient, and the speed of searching was extremely fast, and the efficiency was very high.

“Eh, what is that?” Li Qing quickly discovered something and couldn’t help but reveal a trace of joy.

On the skin of the World Tree, there was something like a funnel hanging there. Right above the funnel, there was a deep crack in the tree trunk that connected to the funnel.

“What is this for?” Li Qing felt puzzled.

“Eh, there seems to be something on that funnel!”

Li Qing walked closer and could clearly see that there was some green juice inside the funnel. It was translucent and sparkling, emitting a gentle light.

“Is this green sap the sap of the World Tree?” Thinking of this, Li Qing suddenly realized, “I understand. This funnel is used to collect tree sap! This tree sap flows down from the cracks on the surface and gathers in the funnel!”

It’s like collecting turpentine, and it works the same way. However, the World Tree had long since died, yet there was still sap flowing out of it? Isn’t this a little too unbelievable?

“Who cares? As long as we know that this funnel contains the World Tree’s sap!” Li Qing was excited.

This was the sap of the World Tree! Although he didn’t know what kind of effect it had, it definitely wasn’t an ordinary thing.

This funnel was hanging on the tree trunk of the world. It emitted surging power. Ordinary people couldn’t get close to it, but Li Qing was different. He had the Demon Ancestor Tree’s heart, and it was unobstructed.

He grabbed the heart of the Demon Ancestor Tree and approached the World Tree. As he had expected, the World Tree’s power automatically split a path, and Li Qing easily approached it.

He came to the funnel and took it off. There wasn’t much green juice on it. It was clear and transparent, like the purest thing in the world, with a faint fragrance.

“How many years has this funnel been hanging here, yet it has only gathered such a small amount of tree sap? Isn’t it too little!”

After Li Qing took down the funnel, he quickly retreated. Although he had the Demon Ancestor Tree Heart in his hand, he did not dare to stay there for too long. The power of the World Tree was simply too surging, causing him to tremble in fear.

“Perhaps there are such funnels in other places.” Li Qing guessed in his heart and continued to search around the World Tree.

The World Tree was too big. Li Qing circled around it at full speed, and it took him half a day to finish. Along the way, he had collected a total of seven funnels, and the juice inside was about the size of a bottle.

After finding a suitable place, Li Qing sat down and with an excited mood, he intended to taste the sap of this world.

“This is the only thing in the world! I’m afraid that there won’t be more than three people who have tasted the World Tree Sap since ancient times, right?”

Li Qing carefully used his True Essence to take out a drop of green juice and then put it into his mouth. Immediately, a cool stream of air flowed down his throat and quickly flowed into his entire body.

Boom! !

There seemed to be an explosion in his mind, and a mysterious and peerless world slowly unfolded in his mind, like a dream.
